>Valid contacts: valid contacts are QSOs correctly logged and
>confirmed. Each operator may use ONE and ONLY one name during the
>Sprint. If the exchange is copied incorrectly, that operator will
>receive zero (0) points. In case of miscopied callsigns, both
>stations will receive zero (0) points for that QSO.
>
>Scoring: each valid QSO counts one 1 (one) point. The final score
>is the total number of QSOs.
>
>Awards: there are NO awards or prizes since these contests have
>been created to test the individual skills only. Results will be
>forwarded as soon as possible to Leagues, magazines and
